Hi all,
I came across this chronomat 8808. It seems completely untouched but I wanted to have your opinion before going further
Let me know what you think

Thanks!

Are the hands correct?
I thought the 8808 had white square ended hour and minute hands and orange chrono hands similar to 1806 and 1808.
These look like 8806 hands.
Perhaps Breitling used both types?
